Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-1927:
-------------------------------------
Hey, didn't mean to make it sound like you are a new developer :) I meant that
its a bit of a large refactoring for someone who is new to Kafka.
Glad to have you on board whether you choose to pick this one up or any other
issue.
I suspect that its not very urgent or [~jkreps] would have uploaded a patch
already ;)
> Replace requests in kafka.api with requests in
> org.apache.kafka.common.requests
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-1927
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1927
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jay Kreps
>
> The common package introduced a better way of defining requests using a new
> protocol definition DSL and also includes wrapper objects for these.
> We should switch KafkaApis over to use these request definitions and consider
> the scala classes deprecated (we probably need to retain some of them for a
> while for the scala clients).
> This will be a big improvement because
> 1. We will have each request now defined in only one place (Protocol.java)
> 2. We will have built-in support for multi-version requests
> 3. We will have much better error messages (no more cryptic underflow errors)
